Amazon Utility Bill Verification

Establishing your Amazon.com seller account requires specific steps to be followed to open and keep your account activated.

Often when a seller does not follow the precise Amazon steps for providing the required information for your business account, business address, mobile phone, chargeable credit card, and identity details correctly, your account may be opened but soon met with a notice that says, we received your submission but did not have enough information to reactivate your account at this time.

Or you might have submitted all paperwork, and your seller account was approved. Then a few days later, you received a follow-up email asking about submitting more documentation.

The additional documentation may include the following:

  • A business license
  • Ensure a valid credit card is on account
  • And a recent utility bill within the past 90 days

U.S. Residents

You may be in a situation where you set up an LLC taxed as an S corporation on your Amazon seller account, but you operate a home based business. You might be in a position you are not able to obtain a utility bill in the name of your LLC to your home address.

Non-U.S. Residents

You don’t need a U.S. company to sell on Amazon. Likely, you set up your Amazon.com seller account under a foreign company with your foreign address. Unfortunately, you might be in a similar situation where your account was either not activated, or you need to reactivate your account due to some issue. If you are looking to form a U.S. single-member LLC disregarded for your Amazon account, we can not help you. Only if you form an LLC taxed properly that leads to an appropriate W-9 form to be completed can we help. A single-member LLC disregarded for U.S. tax purposes will NOT be the legal entity on Amazon. The beneficial owner completes the withholding certificate and is the name on the storefront. Not the LLC. If you are forming an LLC NOT to be on the Amazon account, it is possible your single-member LLC is for drop shipping, and you personally are on the Amazon account and need a utility bill linked to your name with your U.S. address. An LLC on the Amazon account completing a W-9 for a non-resident is more complicated regarding U.S. taxes. If you need help with a proper U.S. formation and a complete understanding of both Amazon and U.S. taxes, we recommend you start with a paid strategy call.

Suppose you cannot obtain a utility bill in your home country that matches your company name and address. In that case, the next option is to obtain a change to a U.S. address and utility bill under the same legal name on your Amazon account.
